We hope you’ve recovered sufficiently from that exposure and are prepared for a video from one of the tracks, “Psychic Surgery,” on said long player. In this video, seemingly

In previous articles, I have really been trying to go more think piece, less stink piece, but maybe it’s time for this gob to break the label of being some new,green journalist; it’s time for Johnny’s first real interview! I saw all this commotion about a counterfeit merch store profiting off one of my favorite

The New Jersey-born metal/hardcore act responsible for aughts crushers Soundtrack to the Personal Revolution (2002), The Perfect Is the Enemy of the Good (2003) and Heart of Darkness (2009) embark on a second act born of lifelong friendships. The core
Greetings,Decibel readers! There’s three particularly dark and brutal albums on today’s list, ones that should please the palettes of those looking for fire, blood, and brimstone. On the other hand, I also chose a hard rock album that totally contrasts with that vibe. AndConverge. Can’t argue with that. — Converge – Hum of Hurt AnotherConverge
Greetings, once again from Dropocalypse Friday, where you have left the mines of capitalist labor and are looking for ways to swiftly “stimulate the economy” by burning your paycheck on records. Fortunately for you, we have a nice list of purchases you can make and hide from your wife – in the off-chance that you

The tour’s over, you’re at least two years out from your next “big things coming” post, and recent reports assert that you need a lot more money than you currently make to afford a home. If our calculations are correct over here at Net Worthless, that means you need to quadruple your earnings, which brings
Happy Wednesday, y’all. Or, as happy as it can be, at least. Smokey Goretooth here again with another installment of “Do I Suck?,” MetalSucks’ version of “Am I The Asshole?” where we take your horror stories and ultimately decide if you suck for some bullshit you may or may not have done. Today’s entry comes
Photo by Clinton Jacob Chicago and Minneapolis were the heralded Midwest cities when it came to noise rock in the ’80s and ’90s, but Decibel Hall of Fame inductees Die Kreuzen repped for nearby Milwaukee, which had its own fertile punk and post-hardcore scene. In that fine tradition, the Brew City offers up power trio
Where they from?California (NOT JAPAN). The New York Knicks start their quest for a championship this Wednesday against the dastardly San Antonio Spurs. Now would be a good time to appreciate what an absolute alien Victor Wembanyama is. He’s seven-foot four! You could remove an entire foot from his height and he would still clean
Alright you blue-haired freaks, be forewarned: I am not in a good mood. I just came from the Monro over at Eastland Drive, and the punk servicing my Ford F-150 seemed to find it appropriate to charge me $930 for new pads and rotors. That little prick got one hell of a sigh and disapproving

The track we’re premiering from that effort, “Woodcutter,” combines the groove of old-school Pearl Jam with the stoner vibe of Kyuss or Monster
I’ve been asked to give my goblin-perspective on a new beef that has emerged by two dudes in the music sphere who vaguely resemble vampires: MGK and YUNGBLUD. At first glance, neither look like they’ve never had a burger in their life, THE IRONY! I’ve never seen so many pale-looking abs! So many questions arise:
Greetings, travelers of the internet, and welcome to a brand-spanking new column here at MetalSucks: DROPOCALYPSE. What exactly is this, you ask? Well, each Friday, I’ll be taking you through the week’s hottest, sexiest, freshest vinyl drops, because record collecting is fun. It is also, objectively, the stupidest hobby of all time. But that’s neither
Happy Friday,Decibel readers! We’ve got a lot of great new music to blast today, with today’s selections providing a diversity in heavy and extreme sounds. Fans of cavernous death metal, symphonic black metal, classic heavy metal, melodic death metal, and unique doom metal (it’s hard to describe Godthrymm in just a few words) should all
Once again, Sodom went to Horst Müller’s studio in Berlin, this time to hammer out their first proper album. The band promised to put in extra effort and work more professionally. However, that wasn’t exactly the result, as nightly parties with gallons of beer remained a dominant factor in the recording process. Whether that was
Castle are dropping a new track along an official video for “Carry Chains” Check it out here. The song is from their albumCarrie Chains,dropping September 4 via Hammerheart Records. “We spent so many years on the road in the early days of Castle, we’d riff on song ideas through night drives and backstage hangs… a
For years, bass players have tried to find new and innovative ways to game the system. They plug their DI boxes straight into the board during recording sessions instead of lugging their amps out of the storage unit they defaulted on. They spend their $1.50 per diem on scratch-off tickets because even a five-dollar win
Sure, there are a lot of bands thatsound likeFunebrarum. After all, the cavernous style mastered by these New Jersey practitioners is one of the essential pillars of death metal. There’s a good reason so many people hearOnward to Golgotha andDawn of Possession and decide to pick up guitars and make lots of noise. But there’s
